I have or am getting soon a Rem 700 sa with varmit contour. The scope is a nsx 3.5x15x56 with a 4" sunshade.
On the rest of my rifles I use tally light weighs, but think I need too try something new. Also I am contemplating a 20 moa base.

Nightforce, Seekins, Badger Ordnance, American Rifle Co.
You pick, they all make top of the line mounts.

If you are looking for beefy steel, I've had good luck with Leupold Mark 4 rings also.
But I try to match brands, so if I were you I'd go witha. Nightforce base, and nightforce rings/ a one peice mout setup if it will work.

Warne rings are my favorite.
Better to be over the hill than under it.

http://www.lonepeakarms.com/accessories/Look at hawkins precision. One piece like talley but with 25 moa built in and much better quality.
I would not buy something that runs on any kind of primer given the possibility of primer shortages and even regulations. In fact, why not buy a flintlock? Really. Rocks aren't going away anytime soon.

Those look like the rear ring has same base radius as the front to fit their in-house (Stiller) action. That won't work on the M700 the OP is asking about. Better call to see what's what before spending $150.

On every rifle I've got with a varmint contour barrel low rings have worked with a 56mm objective. You're going to have a pretty big gap between the objective and barrel with the high rings.

Better call to see what's what before spending $150. They are available for the 700. I just mounted up some 34mm rings and the quality is absolutely obvious.

I used the ring calculator to come up with the hight. Do you have pictures of a 56 mm In lows, also is that with a 20 moa can't

Those look very nice might have to call them on Monday, see what height they recommend

You can get the Talley Light weights with 20 MOA built in at Midway....
